Youtuber Ducky Bhai and wife Aroob released from Jail after brief arrest

by
Ducky Bhai
  • YouTuber Ducky Bhai and his wife were recently detained.
  • It was claimed that Aroob displayed the weapon in a video.
  • Displaying firearms on social media is against the law.

Pakistani YouTuber Saad Ur Rehman, widely known as Ducky Bhai, and his wife Aroob Jatoi were recently detained after being involved in an incident related to displaying a firearm on social media.

The Model Town Organized Crime Unit made the arrest after it was claimed that Aroob displayed the weapon in a video that she uploaded to her Instagram account, which sparked legal action.

In Pakistan, displaying firearms on social media is against the law due to the potential risks it poses to public safety. The couple’s actions led to their brief detention, but they were later released after submitting written apologies to the authorities.

Although both Ducky Bhai and Aroob were released without charges, neither has publicly addressed the incident as of yet.

This isn’t the first time the couple has made headlines. Earlier, Aroob was the victim of a deepfake video, a scandal that prompted the couple to offer a reward of one million rupees for information leading to the culprit responsible for the creation of the video.

With over eight million subscribers on YouTube, Ducky Bhai remains one of Pakistan’s most prominent online personalities, making this incident a major talking point among his followers.

PETA India urges Salman Khan to avoid using animals as props for entertainment

by
Salman Khan
  • PETA India penned a letter to Salman Khan.
  • PETA expressed concerns about the donkey’s presence on Bigg Boss.
  • The organization asked Salman Khan to not use animals as props.

The grand premiere of Bigg Boss 18 on Sunday introduced 18 new contestants, ranging from TV actors to social media influencers.

However, the real buzz was about the ’19th contestant’—a donkey named Gadhraj, whose presence in the house sparked mixed reactions from viewers. The unusual inclusion of an animal has now drawn criticism from animal welfare organization PETA India.

On Wednesday, Shaurya Agrawal, an advocacy associate at PETA India, addressed a letter to host Salman Khan, expressing concerns about the donkey’s presence on the show. “We are being inundated with complaints by members of the public who are deeply distressed over the keeping of a donkey in the Bigg Boss house. Their concerns are valid and must not be ignored,” the letter stated.

PETA India urged Salman Khan to use his influence to “surrender the donkey to PETA India, to rehome in a sanctuary with other rescued donkeys.” The organization emphasized that the “use of animals on a show set is no laughing matter” and asked Salman Khan to not use animals as props for entertainment purposes.

Although some viewers found the situation amusing, others questioned the ethics of confining the animal. “The contestants are trapped there with their consent, but the donkey is not,” one viewer commented on Reddit.

Shaan Shahid on If He Had Ever Considered Marrying Reema Khan

by
Shaan Shahid
  • Shaan Shahid addressed a long-standing question.
  • Shaan answered whether he thought of marrying Reema.
  • He set the record straight during an interview.

In a recent interview, veteran Pakistani actor Shaan Shahid addressed a long-standing question that had fascinated fans in the 1990s: Did he ever consider marrying his co-star Reema Khan? Shaan, whose on-screen chemistry with Reema in films like Bulandi and Nikah won the hearts of many, set the record straight during the interview.

When host Bushra Khan asked, “Did Shaan Shahid ever think of marrying Reema Khan?” Shaan responded, “I haven’t thought like that, I was sixteen when I met Reema. We started our careers together through Bulandi, we were in our teenage years.” He further explained, “At sixteen, you never think of getting married. You just meet new people, explore the world, and focus on work, but you don’t think of marriage because it is never your plan, in the early years of your life.”

Shaan also shared his thoughts on the public’s perception, acknowledging that audiences often confuse on-screen romance with real life: “However, people think differently because of what they see on the screen; on the screen, we do romance, we roam around together, and even express love for each other.”

He concluded with a heartfelt message to Reema, urging her to return to Pakistan and resume acting, saying, “She is a brilliant actress and should work. The industry needs her.”

Who is Evo Morales? Get to know Bolivian Politician

by

Bolivia’s first indigenous president, Evo Morales, is a politician and former trade union leader who came from modest beginnings. His policies have centered on the defense of indigenous rights, the environment, and poverty. However, Morales’ presidency was also marked by controversies, including accusations of authoritarianism and ties to coca farming. With a net worth of $500,000, Morales’ impact on Bolivian politics remains significant.

Early Life of Evo Morales

Born in a small Bolivian village on October 26, 1959, Morales was raised by a poor Aymara family. Upon finishing his elementary schooling, he joined the Bolivian Army but never pursued further education. His humble background influenced his political agenda.

Cocalero Activism & Union Leadership

After relocating to the province of Chapare, Morales started growing coca and organized protests against the United States’ efforts to eradicate the crop. His perception of these campaigns as imperialist assaults on native customs led him to rise to prominence in the cocalero movement and become a powerful representative for Bolivian farmers.

Political Rise of Evo Morales

With the highest percentage of votes ever cast in a Latin American presidential election, Morales was elected president of Bolivia in 2005. His administration prioritized social reform, nationalism, and opposition to imperialism. Although Morales significantly improved the lives of indigenous people, his leadership was criticized, especially for running for a fourth term.

Controversies & Personal Life

Since he was involved in coca farming, Morales was accused of statutory rape and of instigating a narco-state. Despite these controversies, he remains a significant figure in Bolivian history, with two children, Evaliz and Álvaro.

What is Melissa Lucio Case? All You Need to Know

by
Melissa Lucio

Melissa Lucio, who was wrongfully convicted of killing her 2-year-old daughter, Mariah, spent years fighting for justice. She is the first Hispanic woman in Texas to receive a death sentence. In 2008, she was found guilty of capital murder after Mariah died in 2007 from an accidental fall. Melissa insisted she was innocent, but her forced confession combined with an erroneous legal system resulted in her execution.

Flawed Investigation of Melissa Lucio

Following Mariah’s death, Lucio was subjected to a five-hour police interrogation where, exhausted and grieving, she agreed to take responsibility for her daughter’s injuries. Melissa, a survivor of lifelong abuse, was especially vulnerable to the coercive tactics used by investigators. Her defense team, however, was not allowed to present evidence of her trauma, severely weakening her case.

Death of Mariah

Mariah Alvarez, the two-year-old daughter of Melissa, was discovered unresponsive in the bedroom where she had been sleeping and later died in the hospital. The police believed that Mariah was killed after bruises, scratches, and a mark that appeared to be a bite were found on her body. Eventually, it was found that the real cause of death was a blunt-force head injury.

Lack of Evidence

In an attempt to strengthen his reelection campaign, Cameron County District Attorney Armando Villalobos—who is currently incarcerated for bribery—aggressively pursued the death penalty. The prosecution’s main proof of guilt was Melissa’s coerced statement, even though there was no tangible evidence and Child Protective Services’ records revealed no history of violence.

Impact on Melissa’s Family

Lucio’s false conviction caused her family great sorrow. Melissa, the mother of 14, gave birth to her youngest children while in jail and had to give them up for adoption. Her other children, traumatized for years by their mother’s unfair imprisonment, were divided between state and family custody.
